Sky Bet Championship: Two home wins kick-off the weekend

14 October 2016

Neil Warnock picked up a win in his first game in charge of Cardiff City in front of the Sky Sports cameras on Friday night.

The Severnside Derby was decided with a second-half goal from debutant Bluebird Sol Bamba, to repay the faith shown in him by the newly-appointed Warnock, after Peter Whittingham had opened the scoring with a 25th-minute penalty.

Lee Tomlin grabbed a goal for the Robins but it was in vain as the home side saw off the late pressure to pick up the victory.
